What are wine prices like at nice places these days in BA?

Wow that isn't bad at all. With the higher exchange rate it looks like prices are holding steady. This is more of a neighborhood place. I have been there before. Good value. They have another seafood restaurant in Palermo which is ok. Seafood in BA isn't too good but have had some good meals at...

The problem I see is this may make Trump bold to do other things. Already he is saying he will strike cartels in Mexico which may not be a bad idea. The price of cocaine will probably skyrocket.

Yeah someone isn't good with math. I saw it too.

And if you do some digging on Google you can follow the money.

The change in the rental law was a very good thing for increasing the number of long term rentals. Prior to the change in the law, there were almost no long term rentals because of the crazy restrictions in place by the government. The law change drastically opened up volume of listings but...

I actually signed up for Mercado Libre a few years ago without a DNI. I ordered things for my amiga there for years without any problem. But last week it asked me to upload a DNI. So it seems like something has changed and even if you have a Mercado Libre account, it won't work any longer unless...

It is crazy how quickly they all closed after that. But in speaking to people I know the biggest reason all the owners closed was AFIP was investigating them for tax evasion so they all closed down. All these places were cash businesses. Like many, I would go for a drink and to watch the scene...

Yes you can never really count on government official figures when talking about how much cash locals are buying and selling. Most of it is on the black market. I look at the blue dollar exchange rates which have gone up 20% since last month.

Those pilots are very skilled. They do that when a plane is new and when the pilot retires. It was authorized and planned ahead of time.

Everything happens for a reason. I told you to look at the situation as if someone came to you to give an opinion. You probably did that and hence why you hired a private detective. That was a smart decision. Just move on from this. She will probably do all she can to get you to forgive her...

What does Argentina have to gain? I don't understand the positioning of the government on Ukraine. Why would Argentines even the Pro-Milei supporters tolerate this sort of thing? I am not sure if this can be accurate otherwise I would think I would hear more in the news about it. Bad move...

Wow great thread as I love medialunas! I haven't tried many on this thread. But I agree with RN in BA. Atelier Fuerza my friends there told me they have the best croissants in the city and I go there each time I'm in town. But I see Levando that you're talking about has higher reviews and only...

I am not sure how much my plan would cost in the US now. I know costs keep going up there and doctors and facilities never want to pay for anything plus out of pocket costs. Much of Latin America has excellent health coverage at reasonable rates.

Well he doesn't speak the language and she has no real job there. He is living off a meager SS payment which isn't much at all. The photos he sends me he is always just feeding stray dogs. It looks like it rains a lot and cold. I'm not sure about medical care or services but it doesn't look...
